Making assumptions and getting personal is not going to help anyone, will it? I could very well assume that people who say that getting a type rating without a job guarantee is ok and that a "reasonable" number people have been hired in the last 4 years are:
All i know is that 64 KFA aircraft were taken off the market when the company collapsed and as a result there are lesser opportunities in the market and thus things have NOT gone better in the last few years.
How old are you Billboard ? 18 or 20 or maybe 21.
All i can interpret b/w your last two post is that :
1.India has too many CPL holders but no job and this will remain same like till i get a job , why coz all idiots went for flying instead of doing other things as a result i / we are left with no opportunities.
2.I can't stand why idiots are getting rated on big boys and getting called for airlines checks irrespective of their individual skills , resulting of this i am / we are not getting called for exams knowing when i leave for rating i would have to fight along with idiots and donkey's.
You are talking about no number of CPL surplus of 2006-2008 but forgetting the state of those pilots who got CPL's in early 90's who waited more than a decade to get a job by 2007.Still people went for flying training and got jobs in early 2000's when there was only 3 airlines - IA / Jet / Sahara with combined fleet of no more than 60-70 planes.Forget AI as last time it took pilots was in 92-93.
Surplus started in 2007 end itself maybe you were not aware of it or you were busy dreaming glory of being behind shiny new jet.
Now as you have quoted 2006-2008 period , let me show you some light.
IA recruited more than 150 CPL holders from 2005 till 2007 Oct.They recruited 30+ 320 rated skippers in same period.
AI recruited 30 CPL holders in 2008 March/42 in April 2009.They recruited 100 cadets for AIX in 2006 and had 3-4 recruitments of 737 rated pilots from 2009-2012 in numbers of 30 or so plus batches from Igrua.
Spice had 150 cadets in 2006 and took more than 300 CPL pilots since 2007 August till last year.They took 737 exams 3-4 times with anything under 15 per batch since 2008 from back door/front door/toilet door/garbage door.
Indigo took 80 CPL holders till Nov 2007 , on first cum first basis.They started CAE program in 2008 March with initial 2 batch consisting of 20 cpl pilots in total which restarted again in 2010 March taking their CPL toll to 200+ pilots and then rated 320 pilots.
Jet always recruited pilots in systematic way since 2008 for Jetlite/Jet starting in march/july 2008.Then in 2010 august/feb2011.They had numerous 737/ATR recruitment's in between 2008 and 2012.
KFA had 800 + pilots till nov 2009 when exodus started.
Ask yourself when market has pilots with 1000+ hours 320/ATR , who will get preference first and why it makes sense for Airline to take them before fresh CPL's in or out of airline recruitment system ?
Still in doubt about why so many pilots are sitting idle then i have an offer for you - Cessna 208B Job with riders , want one ?
